Console Mode Execution

[agarcia]

Hello,

Here’s my generated property file:

#Fri Jun 28 16:16:22 CST 2019
projectPath=C\:\\Users\\Admin\\git\\testscripts\\SampleProject.prj
retry=0
testSuiteCollectionPath=Test Suites/RMS/RMS_TSC
apiKey=5beb57ba-6f7a-4897-bae6-970f4313cc14

When I try to run it in CLI:

katalon -propertiesFile=“C:\Users\Admin\git\testscripts\console.properties” -noSplash -runMode=console -consoleLog -noExit --config -webui.autoUpdateDrivers=true

This is what I get:

projectPath is there but it says it is missing. Thanks in advance!

@devalex88

You need to escape : and \ in Java’s properties files.

How to do this?

@agarcia : I guess this bug has still not being fixed. I am using Katalon v6.1.5 and facing this issue. What version are you using?
But there is a workaround as mentioned in this post: projectPath argument missing when running from a properties file

[agarcia]

Hi @BlueSapphire
Thank you. I’m using 6.2.0

Hello to everyone,
I am a macOS user and I note that the auto generated command line contains -noExit that is mentioned as a Window -Only option. Its presence make us having to hard stop the script execution with control + c. I don’t what it does on linux. Is it very important, we could erase it manually in the command line before to execute it, but is it possible to don’t generate it when we’re using a different os?

[ehernandez]

not sure about how to set it depending on the OS but yea, you should be able to remove that line without it really affecting your test execution. I believe its meant to allow the tester to review the log post execution

[jtheoret]

Will the console mode be available for mobile testing? I have a mobile app and I would need to execute the test suite automatically when there is changes in the backend of our system…

[Alivevlad]

Hi All! I need to set number of times running test cases in the test suite. And i use for these -retry option, here my command:
katalon -noSplash -runMode=console -projectPath=“path” -statusDelay=5 -retry=4 -testSuitePath=“Test Suites/demo” -executionProfile=“default” -browserType=“Chrome”
And id doesn’t work, test suite run only one time, could you please help me with it?

Hello,
is there a way to generate a collection suite command and to set the “Max concurrent instances” field as in Katalon UI ?

Indeed, when generating CMD, I only got this command :
katalon -noSplash -runMode=console -consoleLog -noExit -projectPath="C:\dev\Katalon Studio\reflexfmtests\ReflexFmTests\ReflexFmTests.prj" -retry=0 -testSuiteCollectionPath="Test Suites/cAllTests"

[staniere]

In fact, I finally understood that concurrent instances has to be set in collection and it is saved in file collection.ts
So we have no need to have a parameter in command line to set it.

Hi everyone.

Is there a way to send the test result to slack using command line?

Many thanks

[Mohamed_Sajjaath]

Is there are any way to runMode = UI mode…?

[ehernandez]

I think you would just remove -noSplash

Hello,

Any one know where –info -buildLabel=“text” -buildURL=“text” these inforrmation will be used ?
at analytics ?

[musaffir.puthukudi]

This to correlate execution details at analytics and test execution from your CI tool

Hi Team,

Katalon version:7.0.6

Is it possible to run the mobile application through the cmd line. I generated the command from console mode and tried to add it in the cmd prompt.
I am getting an error message as: ‘katalonc’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

[Ashwini.jadhav]

I am getting similar error ( ./katalonc : No such file or directory) for web app but seems like after katalon version7.0 it is mandatory to install licensed Katalon Runtime engine .

May I know if anyone is aware about any other solution for this ?

Thanks in Advance!

[Mat_Cauthon]

In version 7.2.1, only the first Test Case from my Test Suite is started. The second test is stuck at “INFO c.k.k.core.webui.driver.DriverFactory - Starting ‘Chrome’ driver”

I run the test via console in IntelliJ with command like:
katalonc -noSplash -runMode=console -projectPath="myProjectPath" -retry=0 -testSuitePath="myTestSuitePath" -executionProfile="default" -browserType="Chrome" -apiKey="myApiKey"

Please advice!
